Bang!

All of them only had time to unleash their reserves of Stellar Energy and enclose their bodies in it. A moment later, the dazzling fire overtook them and launched them into the sky.

“Impossible, absolutely impossible!”

At this time, no one was more stunned than An Lushan. This incident had come out of the blue, without any warning at all.

He had been brimming with pride and arrogance a few moments ago, preparing to celebrate his victory, but he had been taken by surprise. That frightening explosion far exceeded his imagination. Even a Grotto Heaven realm expert like Genesis Supreme appeared lusterless in front of this explosion.

An Lushan felt shock, fear, and unbelievable despair!

He had never imagined that Wang Chong had been hiding this sort of trick beneath the ground.

Bang!

An Lushan only had time to protect his vital points before he was blasted into the sky.

“!!!”

At this time, Genesis Supreme, who was prepared to attack Wang Chong, was also stunned. His eyes flew open as his face twisted.

“This can’t be!”

In the army of more than one million soldiers, at least five hundred thousand lives had been instantly wiped out by that explosion, and the remainder were in the radius of the explosion.

Genesis Supreme found it impossible to believe all this. What had Wang Chong done to achieve this effect?

The power of this explosion even surpassed the explosion created by the azure energy core on the shore of the Caspian Sea.

This was not a power a human, or a mortal dynasty, should have been able to control.

“What did you do?!”

Genesis Supreme turned around and viciously stared at Wang Chong.

“Even if I told you, you wouldn’t understand!”

Wang Chong grinned and refused to explain.

A bomb!

Or perhaps one could call it ‘explosives’!

As he watched his steel fortress being annihilated by his bomb, Wang Chong smiled.

It had finally succeeded! Only the heavens knew just how long he had waited for this moment, cautiously planning out the entire thing.

Bombs, also known as explosives, were a power that should not have appeared in this world!

Not even Wang Chong could predict the consequences of this technology becoming widespread, what sort of impact it would have on this world, so he had instinctively done little to promote it.

Moreover, things were easier said than done, and creating explosives was no easy task in this era.

All Wang Chong could do was buy up all the materials used to make fireworks within the borders of the Great Tang, obtaining the raw materials from there and purifying them.

Using this technology in war was far from simple. Wang Chong had elected to take these explosives and pack them into the interiors of the steel modules, turning them into giant bombs!

Packing tightly-sealed compartments with explosives and air served as the simplest method Wang Chong knew of to make bombs.

In order to prevent them from being discovered, Wang Chong had first placed a layer of sand, then a layer of steel debris and a layer of kerosene, then finally, deep within, were the explosives.

But even this was not enough to hide it from Genesis Supreme and An Lushan, so Wang Chong had set up three large formations beneath the fortress, one of them a Psychic Seal formation that could keep out the senses of a Grotto Heaven realm expert like Genesis Supreme.

Moreover, Wang Chong had also placed many smaller Psychic Seal formations on the steel modules. These small formations were separate from the large Psychic Seal formation.

“You already predicted that the fortress would fall and intentionally played this all out?”

Genesis Supreme clenched his teeth and glared at Wang Chong.

In this war, he had always maintained the attitude of an aloof god, but Wang Chong’s hidden explosives had utterly ruined Genesis Supreme’s demeanor. Genesis Supreme had rarely hated a human as much as he did now, and this hatred was not because Wang Chong had destroyed his physical body in the capital.

As a god, he had somehow completely lost a battle of wits to a human!

“Yes!”

Wang Chong smiled.

Even though Genesis Supreme was radiating thick killing intent, Wang Chong was fearless.

There was no such thing as an impregnable wall, nor were there invincible formations, particularly when his foe was the ancient Celestial God Organization.

Genesis Supreme might have believed that he had caught Wang Chong off guard by destroying the formation, but in truth, Wang Chong had been waiting for this moment from the time Genesis Supreme had appeared. As expected, Genesis Supreme had truly walked into the trap. When the walls fell and the three formations were destroyed, Genesis Supreme had not noticed anything. As expected, he had dropped his guard, allowing Wang Chong to achieve his goal.

If even Genesis Supreme had fallen for it, there was no need to speak about An Lushan. No one in the alliance army had noticed Wang Chong’s trap.

An Lushan had even started to covet this steel fortress, wanting to take it for his own.

By the time Genesis Supreme and his ilk had noticed anything, it was far too late.

“Bastard! Do you really think you’ve won? I just need to kill you to turn everything you’ve done into a flower in the mirror, a moon in the water. You cannot change anything!”

Genesis Supreme’s face turned savage with rage, and a moment later, he attacked Wang Chong.

“I’ll kill you and then destroy your army, making everything you’ve done for naught!”

Bang!

The dazzling halo appeared behind Genesis Supreme’s head, and at the same time, a divine spear appeared in his hand, slicing through the fabric of space as it thrust at Wang Chong.

This spear was thrust with incredible power and speed. In the air, a giant phantom spear that was one thousand feet long manifested, gathering enough power at its tip to obliterate a mountain.

“Hmph, Genesis Supreme, do you really think I’m no match for you!? The plot is revealed, and today, you will meet your end here!”

Wang Chong coldly snorted, not backing down a single step against Genesis Supreme’s frightening attack.

Boom!

Without the slightest hesitation, Wang Chong put on the Samsara Battle Armor and punched his gauntleted fist at Genesis Supreme’s spear.

Wang Chong and Genesis Supreme had exchanged blows numerous times, but this time, as fist and spear collided, a powerful stream of Psychic Energy erupted from Wang Chong’s fist.

The Nightmare Beast’s energy, fused with Wang Chong’s energy, chose this moment to erupt.

Boom!

The combined attack of Stellar Energy and Psychic Energy gave Genesis Supreme’s mind a jolt.

“That beast again!”

Genesis Supreme’s expression chilled as he recognized the energy. Without a second thought, he sent a wave of Psychic Energy at Wang Chong.

But this time, Wang Chong didn’t give Genesis Supreme an opportunity to display his power. A dark golden Halo of Spacetime appeared beneath his feet, opening a spacetime passage that instantly enveloped both Wang Chong and Genesis Supreme.

Behind them was the Tang army. A battle here would result in devastating losses in the army.

Wang Chong and Genesis Supreme had disappeared, but this did not cause much of a stir in the army. At this time, everyone’s attention was turned to the steel fortress.

Dense plumes of smoke rose from the steel fortress, and debris and corpses could be seen everywhere. More than sixty percent of the more than one million alliance soldiers had been wiped out, and the remaining four-hundred-thousand-some soldiers had been badly wounded.

Though they had survived, their armor was in tatters, their weapons shattered, their expressions ashen. They looked around with blank eyes at the devastation around them.

What had happened just now?

Why had that massive explosion happened when they were charging into the fortress?

The development had happened too quickly. It was too sudden, and their minds were still blank.

Let alone the alliance, even the hundreds of thousands of fleeing Tang soldiers were lost.

But at this time, they all heard Wang Chong’s voice.

“All soldiers, hear me! Attack! Exterminate the traitors and pacify the rebels!”

The voice rumbled like thunder over the southern walls of the fortress.

Bang!

All the Tang soldiers erupted with cheers. Even the slowest of them had by now realized that this was all Wang Chong’s doing, including their retreat.

They were no stranger to Wang Chong’s style, and this wasn’t the first time Wang Chong had used a fake retreat.

“Hahaha, Wang Chong, you bastard, you even managed to fool this old man!”

Zhangchou Jianqiong, who had already prepared himself for defeat, began to loudly laugh.

Though he cursed Wang Chong, there was no sense of reprimand in his voice. War was the art of deception, and Wang Chong had fully embraced these words. And it was this sort of Wang Chong that he, the generals, and all of the Great Tang loved.

Moreover, so long as they ultimately won, nobody would care what methods Wang Chong resorted to or how many people he fooled!
